Credits for Animal Facts

Tim Knight, a biologist and web editor, prepared most of the
animal facts pages using personal observations, field guides, books, journals
and reliable online resources. Typically, three to ten sources were used to
develop each fact sheet.

The Spanish version of the animal facts were prepared by Waterville high-school students and reviewed by their teacher.

Special thanks to Alan and Elaine Wilson of Port Coquitlam, British Columbia who generously provided
many outstanding photos via Natures Pic's.
